vRB not getting registered with vRA 7.6 version, error "Invalid data format"

-
                                  Not able to register vRB with vRA 7.6 version

During my upgrade of vRB, i had encountered with vRB registration with vRA.
This is known issue as of now with vRB and VMware is aware as well. there is a fix for this.
Getting error "Invalid data format" while registering with vRA.

1. SSH to vRB appliance and go to "/usr/local/tomcat/shared-lib"
2. check if any .jar files exist there or not. In my case, there was no .jar files located under this directory.
3. I got shared lib .jar files from VMware for vRB 7.6 version.
4. Once got the .jar files from VMware, follows below steps. If you need vRB 7.6 versions .jar files, comment me on this post, i will provide that.
5.***** Take a snapshot of the vRBC appliance again *****

 i. SSH to vRB appliance and run command "monit stop all"
ii. Put all the jar files to "/usr/local/tomcat/shared-lib/"
iii. Run command "monit start all"
iv. Re-Register the vRB appliance with vRA.

This time vRB will get register with vRA without any issues.

How to migrate the N-VDS as the host switch to VDS 7.0 in NSX-T 3.x

  Hello There, In this article, i am covering how to migrate the ESXi host switch from N-VDS to VDS 7.0 switch in NSX-T 3.2.x version. When using N-VDS as the host switch,  NSX-T  is represented as an opaque network in  vCenter Server . N-VDS owns one or more of the physical interfaces (pNICs) on the transport node, and port configuration is performed from  NSX-T Data Center . You can migrate your host switch to  vSphere  Distributed Switch (VDS) 7.0 for optimal pNIC usage and manage the networking for  NSX-T  hosts from  vCenter Server . When running  NSX-T  on a VDS switch, a segment is represented as an  NSX-T  Distributed Virtual Port Groups. Any changes to the segments on the  NSX-T  network are synchronized in  vCenter Server. We have an NSX-T environment running with NSX-T 3.2.2.1 version. this environment was designed and implemented with NSX-T 2.x version and that time we used the N-VDS as host switch configuration on the transport nodes bcuz VDS was not supported that time.

How to Import/Register a VM into vRA portal

-

You can import an unmanaged virtual machine to a vRealize Automation environment. An unmanaged virtual machine exists in a vCenter but is not managed in a vRealize Automation environment and cannot be viewed in the vRA portal . Once you import an unmanaged virtual machine, the virtual machine is managed by using the vRealize Automation management interface. you can see the virtual machine on the Managed Machines tab or the Items tab. Please follow below steps to Import/Register VM into a vRA portal. Log in to vRealize Automation as a fabric administrator and as a business group manager. If you are importing virtual machines that use static IP addresses, prepare a properly configured address pool.  If you use bulk import to import a virtual machine with a static IP address that is allocated to another virtual machine, the import fails. Create a Blueprint and should not have even network attached as well. See below snapin. Create Network profile that shoul
